I am quite new to vintage Scandinavian glass and I am finding it fascinating.

I am though, having trouble trying to find a reference book or site to identify and explain the signatures letters and initial it. I am thinking along the lines of something similar to a silver hallmark book for Scandinavian glass. Is there such a thing out there, or am I going to have to write one over the next couple of years?

B means vase, 936 seems to have been made between 1954 and 1962 (can't pin it closer from Ivo's book); the later name - can you make out what it says... I think I can see R TRAND but if you can pick out the rest it would be useful.

I would still like to see a photo archive of the signature intials in catalogued in one place for Scandinavian glass (maybe not as complicated as the silversmiths site I use. (http://www.silvercollection.it/Englishsilvermarks1.html) . Or maybe we could do this on glassmessages a bit like the labels archive there is on glassmessages?

This particular piece probably has the longest signature you will find, lol. It includes the manufacturer-Stromberg B 936. and it also includes the maker of the vase- A. (Asta) Stromberg and the engraver Rune Strand.
